When using the vacuum cleaner, basic safety precautions should always
be observed, including the following:
1.
Only use the vacuum cleaner indoors on dry surfaces. Do not
handle the plug or vacuum cleaner with wet hands. Do not use
outdoors or on wet surfaces.
2.
Turn off the vacuum cleaner controls before disconnecting or
connecting from the electrical socket.

Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with

This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including

or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been

by a person responsible for their safety.
6.
Only use as described in this manual. Only use Vax
recommended attachments.
7.
Do not use the vacuum cleaner if it has been dropped,
damaged, left outdoors or dropped into water. Do not use the
vacuum cleaner with a damaged cord or plug. If the supply
cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or a
recommended Service Agent to avoid hazard and
invalidating the guarantee.
8.
Do not pull or carry by cord. Do not use the cord as a handle,
close a door on the cord or pull cord around sharp edges or
corners. Do not run the vacuum cleaner over the cord. Keep
the cord away from heated surfaces.

openings blocked and do not restrict air flow. Keep all openings
free of dust, lint, hair or anything that might reduce airflow.

from openings and moving parts.

smoking or burning objects.

16.
Take extra care when vacuuming on stairs.
17.
Keep vacuuming area well lit.
18.
Store the vacuum cleaner in a cool, dry area.
19.
Turn off the on/off switch before unplugging the
vacuum cleaner
20.
Use only CE-approved 13 amp extension cords.
Non-approved cords may overheat. Care should be taken to
arrange the cord so that the cord cannot be tripped over.
WARNING: Always switch off and unplug the vacuum cleaner from
the electrical socket before assembling, opening or emptying the dirt
container, or before connecting/disconnecting the attachments.
CAUTION: The vacuum cleaner is a very powerful unit. Before
plugging the cord into the electrical socket, make sure the switch is in
the 'off' position.
IMPORTANT: If the inlet, hose or telescopic tube is blocked, switch off
the vacuum cleaner and remove the blockage(s) before re-starting the
vacuum cleaner. See Maintenance:
Clearing blockages.
IMPORTANT: Washing filters maintains vacuum performance. Vax
recommends that they should be checked and cleaned periodically
(depending on the level of use). Make sure all filters are completely
dry before inserting back into the vacuum cleaner.
IMPORTANT:
The motor is equipped with a thermal cut-out. If for any
reason the unit should overheat, the thermostat will automatically turn
the unit off. Should this occur, unplug the vacuum cleaner from the
electrical socket and turn off the switch. Remove dirt container and
empty. Clean filters. Allow the unit to cool for approximately one (1)
hour. To re-start, plug into an electrical socket and switch back on.
This vacuum cleaner is intended for household use only and NOT
for commercial or industrial use.
PLEASE KEEP INSTRUCTIONS FOR FURTHER USE.
